I have been tripping down memory lane on facebook the last few days. I am "running" into folks I haven't thought of in years, but am glad I have reconnected with them. Some times I think we are a way to transient society these days. I am feeling comfortable in my reconnection's. I feel like missing pieces are falling into place. The other thing is my new friends, I call them my Lindsay friends. We have all been fans of Mark since we were teens and now we have united into a family on line via the ML forum and facebook. I will be going to Vegas next month to see him perform and hook up with some of these new friends.

Yes sometimes the Internet is a good thing.

I understand the plight of the working mom, but right now I am sick because the stylist that works with mine brought her sick kid to work with her. Last week I went in for my semi anunal visit to get my hair permmed and little did I know that the two kids that were there had the flu. To me a hair salon is not really a good place to bring a sick kid. There are a lot of little old ladies that go to these places and they don't have the best of imune systems. Come to think of it mine isn't the best either and so even though I have a few more years to reach the little old lady catagory, I am sick and grumpy.

Why is it so hard when relationships end. Whether it be romantic or a friend. You bend over backward to help people out and they stab you in the back.

Currently I am dealing with a former friend that I had helped out by moving her mobile home onto my vaccant lot for a reasonable rent. She has been living on this lot for 4 years, I added her son and herself to my family plan for cell service. Granted she did cook several dinners a week that I was invited to and she did find a lot of throw aways that were very usable that she gave me. I had no problems helping out in other respects too. I ran erands for her while I was in town to work. It seemed to be a good friendship.

At one point we were even thinking about buying a property together, but at this point I am really glad that did not come to pass. I realized thing were going down hill when she started lecturing me on how I spend my money, saying that instead of buying new parts for my car I needed to start shopping at the junk yard. I explained to her that it is my money and it was none of her business. I did not tell her how she should spend her money, and she spent her money in ways that I wouldn't have spent mine, but it was hers to spend.

All along she has never gotten along with the co owner of the property and she has accused him of doing all kinds of things from breaking windows, rewiring her phone, letting air out of tires, running batteries down on her cars. He went away for military duty for a while so she couldn't blame him for any of the stuff that was going on although it continued. Now he is back and things have really gotten crazy. I have told her all along that I would believe her if she would provide me with proof. She accused him of causing the brakes to fail on her old pickup that has been through lots including a roll over accident. I wanted proof which she has been unable to provide. Even the mechanic she took the truck to was unable to say that it was tampered with. She remains convinced that he has had lessons in spy craft while in the military and can do all of this and more with out discovery.

At one point she told me to tell him to stop so she could move and that there would be no more rent until it all stopped. I told her that he would not be doing things as he really would like to have her move. I suggested that the problems may lay elsewhere, which feel on deaf ears. At the begining of this month I received a call from her on the cell phone I provided her and she said every thing was my fault. I am still trying to figure that one out as It would be very hard to stop anyone from doing anything unless I was handcuffed to them. Oh well. Now she has no cell phones and will have to start using her land line which I am sure she has not paid the bill on. She told me a month a go her gas had been cut off and she needed to shower elsewhere.

She is now 4 months behind in her rent and it is all my fault. She has been passing around town that it is all my fault and my answer is yes, I am evicting her for failure to pay her rent.
